The market isn't free, so it cannot decide - even Adam Smith was pretty freaking clear about this. And I don't mean we need less regulation, I mean companies have complete control over laws, whether or not there's an even pla

The problem is people are so trained that there must be both sides to every issue and you must steel man every other debater when sometimes the guy is coming at you with a knife. There's no two sides to deregulating every business to p

In practical terms as long as no one sues they can do anything they want, if enough money on the table then yeah, someone's going to sue, and WP greatly meets that bar. Had a project I was a major contributor on relicensed to appease m

I really like DH(though I am still mad about the cloudatcost shenanigans) and use them but if you use 200x the resources the other shared sites consume you're getting the boot just like anyone.

Well, that's not what we have today. ICE making so many arrests at immigration court for people who showed up after they pressure the judges to dismiss the case. People with papers, married parents, and people who have been here decade

At my company at least four developer jobs were lost because of AI tooling, but keep spouting off about the entire economy at once.

Well, if you are curating every link them its a different story, and looks like a more classic webring - I missed that part of the work - I thought it looked like a big set of crawler data that wasn't as manually curated.

I don't see how this applies as its aggregating a bunch of stuff from random crawlers - if you want to crawl a list of actual domains that's generally considered the list of things that could resolve, so seems like a good starting

Cant you just request the ICANN’s zone files and have the canonical list of the day?

Because they know they are creating unfulfilling low paying jobs with shitty objectives, who wouldn't fuck off in that scenario?

Do you live in Socal, like the person is implying? You make >500k a year and still live in a pretty small house then? And if so, like basically no one in the united states?

You couldn't be more wrong, no evidence supports your assertions. https://fortune.com/2024/07/24/return-to-office-mandates-lay... https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/careersandeduca

Exactly - there's a tension between keeping storage, performance, and cost. Keep everything actually can make some things faster (though mostly slower) and give you a depth of information you didn't have, but has a big impact on s

That's funny - ride fares change, and only in an Uber have I been kicked out of the car "because the app crashed" in the middle of an abandoned road, or had a very intoxicated person pick me up, or try to drive recklessly in

The question is how does the product outlook appear? Most large companies do layoffs constantly to appease investors and nobody blinks twice, why would they care if you made the P&L even better if it doesn't degrade the product in

Good leaders are great communicators and if they don't write anything down I wouldn't consider putting them up as either.

I think the hard part to figure out is how to fire those people without causing a lot of unintended consequences. I have been through layoffs 6 times now, and what I have seen often times they are high up in the food chain with a lot of po

Right, but isn't snowflake like the most expensive way to run python? why not just host the python outside of snowflake and store it there?

I can acknowledge many facts, but since you seem to dodge that really big one I don't think we can have a productive discussion here. Talking about rationality in that context of what appears to be motivated thinking is ... interesting

You started with "Why is anyone..." and you got your answer - the founder and promoter of the technology has been on record lying about it multiple times. There's lawsuits about it. Steelmanning Tesla's position makes no

The only people arguing against big government are republicans when democrats are in power, otherwise everyone is happy to expand spending.

by hobs 1y ago
Sure, but that's a different argument entirely - we don't have money vs you should be spending the money.

And so would that be a thing we can maybe have an issue with? The entire "handwaving away" bit is the fact that moving a decision another layer up a hierarchy doesn't change who is responsible or how that responsibility manif

I like how the resource issue is hand waived away because some random manager decided not to do it, and that's somehow a force of nature now.

Because call centers are cost centers - nobody pays a dime more than they have to in these situations and its all commodity work.

That is a good thing, but that's also just a training gap - I worked with tech support agents for years in gigantic settings and taking notes while you take an action is difficult to train but yields tangible results, clarity from the

Yes, its very much a goldfish problem, where work needed grows to fill what is possible, not what is advisable or good. The only way I have seen people "solve" this is by putting a bunch of speed bumps in a process, and generally
